If you have blood tests at Harrington Medical, these will be sent to the laboratory at St James Hospital by a special courier service that leaves the Surgery every day at 11.30am.
- A Doctor will ring you directly on receipt of an important result that is significantly abnormal
- We would advise all patients to ring the surgery for your results 10 days after the sample was taken if you have not heard from us.
- If a doctor is not immediately available, you will be phoned later
- Our Nurse or Doctor will contact you to inform you of a normal result / mildly abnormal results.
- In the event you have not heard from the practice within 2 weeks please call us
- Sometimes blood results get lost and delayed at the lab. We will follow these up. If needed, a repeat test will be organised free of charge.
